In May 2015, GeeGun released his third album "Your Choice" which included his hits "Nothing to Love with" and "Time to Weight Loss".

His fourth album “DZHIGA” followed in May 2016, which incuded his two hit records - “Melody” (feat. Jah Khalib) and “Till My Last Breath” (feat. Basta).

In April 2017, GeeGun released his single “Days and Nights”, which became a huge hit online, reaching the top of the national streaming charts. This paved the way for his next album, also named “Days and Nights”, which reached platinum status within a month. In September 2017, GeeGun recorded the hit “More Than Life” and produced the single’s video alongside his wife Oksana Samoilova.

In February 2018, he directed a video based on the hit “DNA” performed with hip-hop performer Artem Kacher. Within just a week the record gathered more than 10 million views and topped the Apple Music, iTunes BOOM and VK charts as well as all national charts.

Most recently in 2018, GeeGun won the Muz-TV 2018 Transformation Award for Best Hip-Hop Project.

He will be followed on Friday by the one and only Mahmut Orhan. His fresh combination of soulful deep house, groovy indie dance, and worldly elements from his own cultural experiences has landed him solidly amongst today’s most promising dance music artists.
